Sands

The class looked at sand samples this week. With the ones I saw, most of them were white and not very noteworthy.

Anyway, one of the white sand samples, from Cancun, Mexico, were sorted well. It looked like salt, but since it was on a microscope, they looked much bigger, especially when a stronger lens was used.

There was another sand sample I saw that was orange. I don't remember which particular beach it came from, but it once again looked much bigger when looking at the microscope, was very well sorted, and was high on the Wentworth Scale.
